The Amish. What's the first word that comes to
your mind? Quaint? Backward? Old-fashioned? True, their ways are not
the ways of our fast-paced, technologically dependent, twentieth
century American world. But they have remembered some things,
preserved ways of living and relating, that most of us wish we could
recapture. In this intimate documentary Mennonite historian-producer
John Ruth takes us inside the world of the Amish. What he reveals
about this fascinating and intriguing people provides food for thought
about what kind of world we have made, what's really important, and
how we live our lives. |

lifestyle it reveals. Succeeds in conveying an understanding of the
philosophy of the Amish." |
